Christina Perri Unveils "A Thousand Years" Clip

Christina Perri has released the video for her contribution to "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn: Part 1" movie soundtrack tune, "A Thousand Years," hit on Web Wednesday. Would you wait a thousand years for the love of your life? Well, Perri plans on waiting basically forever in her new video "A Thousand Years." To be in love with someone for a one thousand years is more than most of us can fathom, but a lovestruck Perri isn't afraid to run a marathon for love.
The 25-yesr-old talked a little about the guitar-driven song and its meaning. She explains, "For me, it just has to do most with the love story between Edward and Bella." The romance is not without its difficulties, and Perri says, "I feel like it's 'Romeo and Juliet,' and they just happen to be vampires and there's werewolves." Definitely, and that is what makes it so romantic. The "Jar of Hearts" singer tries to explain what kind of song fans can expect, "pretty, classical and simple." None of the techno stuff. Just Perri's soulful voice creating an ghostly melody.
The song is the perfect complement for one of the most romantic stories of all time. Like Perri says, "I wrote [the song] for Edward and Bella in their perspective. It's the purest love song I think I could have possibly written. It's about the simplest kind of love and a timeless love." Timeless, as in immortal vampires spending the rest of eternity together. My favorite singer is a self-proclaimed 'Twilight' fan and was over the moon when she was asked to put something together for the film. She reveals, "The fact that my dream came true... still blows my mind, and I don't think I've fully processed it yet."
a solemn-looking Perri guides us to her candle-filled sanctuary that overlooks the ocean in the phenomenal video for the romantic tune. It cuts back and forth from Perri decked out in a gown, singing the passionate lyrics of the song while surrounded by tea lights to scenes from the upcoming movie, including Bella and Edward's wedding scene and all that honeymoon hotness. Although this particular song is not the actual wedding song, it is perfect for the montage of romantic clips seen throughout the video.
